The memorial will honor 22 officers and law enforcement officials who have died over the years in the line of duty in Madison County. The dedication starts Tuesday at 10 a.m. at Huntsville's Public Safety Building, 815 Wheeler Ave. The event is open to the public.

Burch's statue shows two police officers with their caps removed in remembrance of their fallen comrades. The cost of the memorial is more than $400,000, with the money raised coming from donations by individuals and corporations. Burch also designed the statue for the new Veterans' Memorial Park.

The memorial's design includes benches, green space and the names of the officers who have died. Citizens may still purchase engraved brick pavers for $100 each.

Along with the families of the officers, Huntsville Police Chief Mark Hudson, Madison County Sheriff Blake Dorning, District Attorney Rob Broussard and Huntsville Mayor Tommy Battle will attend. The ceremony will feature a 21-gun salute, the playing of "Taps," bagpipes and the Missing Man Formation Honor Guard.
